You can: log in, read the tech support FAQ, or request your lost password. This dumb message (and those ads) will appear on every screen until you register! Get rid of this crap by registering your own SA Forums Account and joining roughly 150,000 Goons, for the one-time price of $9.95! We charge money because it costs us money per month for bills, and since we don't believe in showing ads to our users, we try to make the money back through forum registrations.

The theories just can't handle why we accord more rights to a disabled human or an infant than to an ape that knows 200 words of sign language. See, e.g., Peter Singer.

Typically, those theories say that neither apes nor infants have "rights." However, persons still often owe duties to them and thus can't abuse them, must feed them, etc.
